Interesting to see it moved up a week. You don't see that often. I would say it must mean that the game is in good shape, so they don't need that extra week for polishing.
I just looked at the release dates of upcoming games, and I don't see anything big that would be competing with it on the 12th. Maybe they'd rather move it one week further away from Spider-Man (AC will now launch 2 weeks before), especially when you consider that they'll still be about a month past Starfield. So I guess they get that release window and the corresponding news cycle all to themselves..
